Chapter Sixteen: The Ambition of the Demon Star

  Xiao Chen, unaware that he had been regarded as a potential stock by the giant commercial alliance of Castello, was playing with a card in his hand that was about half the size of his palm. The card was made of a special and precious magical material called "Moss Jade Crystal Stone", which was thin but tough, and could even withstand the slashing of high-level swordsmen. On its surface were fine magic patterns and the logo of Castello Commercial Alliance.

  Just go to any branch of Castro's merchant alliance and use a special magical device to activate it, you can see the card owner information displayed on it, and how much money is in the card.

  Moreover, this giant commercial alliance has tentacles that penetrate every corner of the market, and this card can also be used in most stores.

  Xiao Chen had to admit that magic in this world had developed to a peak, and was no longer just a means of cultivation, but had permeated into the daily lives of ordinary people, like technology, promoting the development of civilization.

  After learning some information at Castro's merchant guild, Xiao Chen arrived at the dock where the magic airship was berthed.

  A fourth-level civilization is a watershed between intermediate and low-level civilizations, one of the distinctive differences being that a fourth-level civilization has already possessed air power.

  Magic airships can play a huge role in war and are also a means of daily transportation for people in mid-level civilized countries.

  The speed of the magic boat can greatly shorten the travel time over long distances in the air, which is beyond the reach of horse-drawn carriages.

  In the airship harbor above, a number of huge airships were moored.

  Large ones exceeded one hundred meters, small ones also had twenty or thirty meters, with magical light flickering on top.

  That A-level VIP magic crystal card immediately took effect. When Xiao Chen took out the card, the ticket seller, who had a zombie-like expression on his face, suddenly revealed a flattering smile.

  The airship ticket to Tianxing Academy originally required a 1,200 gold coin fare, but Xiao Chen only spent 600 gold coins and got the best seat.

  The visible power of Castro's commercial allies extends to every corner of the empire.

  This small magic airship is about forty meters long, with countless defensive spell patterns carved on the black metallic hull that can cope with changes in the weather and also resist attacks from mages and swordsmen below a certain level of strength.

  Inside there are only twenty comfortable seats and a small bar to pass the time on long journeys.

  "How big is this world?"

  Xiao Chen sat in a comfortable plush seat on the airship, flipping through the "World Chronicle" he had obtained from Castro's merchant alliance.

  "The World Log" depicts some popular styles of the continent, and in the back, a map of the Tianxing Empire is attached.

  The more I watch, the more shocking it is.

  Look at the map.

  From Mount Town to Tianxing Academy, it's a full eight thousand kilometers.

  And this is still just a small part of the Tianxing Empire, which spans over 300,000 kilometers.

  Too big, too large.

  The entire earth is not as big as the territory of this empire.

  The hierarchy of civilization, he already has a slight understanding. (See works related, no more water here)

  Such a vast empire is actually only a fourth-level civilization, and above it are fifth-level, sixth-level... ninth-level civilizations. Moreover, many of these civilizations are not human nations, but alien races.

  Fairy tribe, Winged people tribe, Dark night tribe...

  The ninth level is not the limit, and the legendary tenth-level super civilization has the rule of God.

  Xiao Chen was thoroughly shocked.

  What a vast world this is, with countless brilliant civilizations, countless races, and countless powerful beings, creating all sorts of grand epics, legends, and even gods!!!

  It is said that gods can destroy an entire continent with a flip of their palm.

  What an enormous and exciting stage!

  Xiao Chen quietly let out a breath.

  Closing "The World Chronicle", his eyes gleamed with a longing and excited light.

  "Not bad, really not bad, what I'm in contact with now is just a small part of this world. This vast world is truly exciting, it's been a long time since I've felt so excited... On Earth, I was known as the "Demon Star", stirring up clouds and rain, shaking the entire cultivation world. One day, this world, this stage, will also be my own personal stage, I am the eternal protagonist, the eternal melody..."

  The demon star is free and unbridled, doing as it pleases without any restrictions.

  Do whatever comes into your mind.

  Not caring about anyone's gaze, nor any worldly boundaries.

  This strange world, to Xiao Chen, didn't have any sense of belonging. The countless civilizations, the countless strong ones, legends, epics, and even gods would all be objects for the Demon Star to trample and break.

  Rampage through the entire different world.

  Create an eternal epic, legend.

  Let anyone only extol, believe in and worship one name.

  This is the grand vow that the demon star has now made.

  A heaven-defying, unorthodox and rebellious grand ambition that seems impossible to achieve.

  However, the ending.

  Who could have predicted it?

  ……

  ……

  Five days later.

  Xiao Chen finally rushed back to Tian Xing Academy, exhausted and covered in dust.

  Although there were some impressions in mind, what I saw with my own eyes was quite shocking.

  Above the magnificent entrance of the college, the six characters "Tian Xing Mo Wu College" carved with flame magic stone were entwined with magical fire snakes, burning fiercely day and night.

  Near the entrance.

  There stood a gigantic statue, the golden image of Grandmaster Klaydman, who founded the Celestial Academy years ago. The statue was over twenty meters high and it was unknown how many tons of gold were used to build it, shining with dazzling light that made people's eyes widen in awe.

  The staff in Klaydman's hand was made entirely based on his pre-eminent weapon "Black Magic Staff" and enlarged dozens of times.

  At the top, a football-sized black magic gemstone, like a devil's eye, emits a mysterious and eerie glow.

  Innumerable intricate and precise magical runes shone along the gemstone-tipped magic wand.

  After thousands of years of wind and frost, the added magic array patterns have become dense and numerous like the stars in the sky, connecting with the overall defensive array method of the entire Tianxing Academy... Enough to withstand any grandmaster's bombardment.

  Xiao Chen walked through the academy following his memories.

  The scale of Tianxing Academy is completely different from that of schools on Earth, covering an area roughly equivalent to a small city. The number of buildings is countless.

  Inside, it is divided into Magic District and Swordsman District.

  Each district is further divided into countless sub-institutes, such as the Magic District, which alone has an outer institute with departments for earth, fire, wind, and water. Each major magic system has its own independent teaching building, library, trial field, office building, laboratory, dormitory, etc. There are also primary, intermediate, and advanced magic departments, all extremely complex.

  "It's too big, I'm afraid if I'm not careful, I'll get lost."

  On Xiao Chen Road, I see cars coming and going.

  The college is so big that it's impossible to walk completely, and inside, there are also horse-drawn carriages available for hire.

  Xiao Chen simply rented one.

  The carriage took him to the area where the Magic District Prep School was located.
